• AIR: Autoimmune retinopathy
• AIRE: Autoimmune regulator gene

Purpose: To present a case of autoimmune retinopathy resulting from a mutation in the autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene.
Design: Case Study
Methods: Case Review
Results: Mild improvement of goldmann visual field following treatment with systemic and local immunosuppression.
Conclusions: There are a limited number of cases linking autoimmune retinopathy with a mutation in the AIRE gene. Further research is needed to find more effective treatment and to prevent tissue damage.
